#### Ubuntu Excuses command line tool

# Ubuntu Excuses

Once a package is uploaded to the Ubuntu archive (dput) it triggers a series of
tests and rebuilds across multiple packages in the archive. Said package won't
be able to migrate until it has build properly on all supported architectures
and all its dependencies have been successfuly tested.

This is a very simple view but this is how Ubuntu package migration works.

When a package doesn't migrate, one would wonder why? what is its excuse?

## introducing ubuntu-excuses

While visual-excuses allows to see the interactions between blocked packages
in the proposed pocket, this tool offers a command line approach. This tool also
uses the package per team mapping relevant to Canonical's internal teams which
could help to show excuses per team.

## Enable snaps on Fedora and install ubuntu-excuses

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.
